Take That to debut single tomorrow

Take That's first single as a three-piece will debut on UK radio tomorrow (10.10.14)

Take That will premiere their new single tomorrow (10.10.14).

The 'Patience' hitmakers' first track since Jason Orange's recent departure can be heard on UK radio at 7.30am and the remaining members of the group - Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald - hope it will be a hit with fans.

A posting on the group's twitter page read: "We can officially confirm that our new single is premiering tomorrow morning across UK radio! Tune in from 7:30am."

Gary then wrote on his own twitter page: "hope u like it (sic)"

And in response to a fan who said she was excited about hearing the song, he replied: "So r we (sic)"

Howard doesn't think fans will be disappointed by the track, whose name has not yet been announced.

He tweeted: "we can't wait to hear on the radio too!... tis a great song (sic)"

The song marks the group's first new material since 2010 and Howard admitted it has been a long time coming.

He wrote: "About bloody time hey (sic)"

Take That fans were left stunned last month when Jason announced his departure.

He said in a statement: "I want to start by saying how proud I am of what we have achieved together over the years.

"However, at a band meeting last week I confirmed to Mark, Gary and Howard that I do not wish to commit to recording and promoting a new album...

"At the start of this year and with my full knowledge and blessing the guys began writing new material.

"There have been no fallings out, only a decision on my part that I no longer wish to do this."

The prototype boy band have re-lit their own fire and returned to cash in those nostalgia dollars, and have proved far more credible than any of us could have imagined. Now reduced to a three-piece as Jason Orange bows out but Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald soldier on.
